Abilene, Texas, Monday Evening, June 16, 1952
Red Negotiators Flayed for
Directing Koje Island Riots
MUNSAN, Korea W—The senior
United Nations truce negotiator to-
day charged the Communists with
responsibility for Red prisoner of
war riots and for continuing "n
bloody and profitless war.”
Maj Gen William K. Harrison
accused the Red delegates at a
fruitless 22-minute session of di-
recting "your captured personnel
nt Koje Island to endanger their
lives to further your nefarious
schemes."
Hundreds of Reds have been kil-
led or wounded on Koje in Com-
munist-led riots.
The key issue blocking a truce
is the U.N. stand that no prisoner
be forcibly repatriated Only 70 000
of 169,000 captured Reds have ex-
pressed willingness to return to
Red rule
Harrison said refusal of the Reds
to accept thia stand was incompre-
hensible. He added
"You must realize that you are
choosing between an honorable ar-
mistice and the continuation of a
bloody and profitless conflict "
North Korean Gen. Nam n re-
plied in stiffened tones He ac-
cused the U.N of “incessant
atrocities" and "slaughtering" of
war prisoners It was the first time
in five days he had repeated these
truce talks had to succeed. He re-
plied:
“I wouldn’t bet one way or an-
oCher. It's a tossup as far as I
can see. I honestly de not know
whether the Communists are sin-
cere.”
Alexander said that in his opin-
ion it would not be wise to appoint
a British delegate to the armistice
talk-, although 1 think the people
ia Britain would be pleased if they
had a representative.’'
He said appointment at a British
representative might give the Com-
munists the false impression that
the Allie, were changing tactics
to yield in the deadlocked talks
The U.N. Command on Sunday
sent the Communists a note ac-
cusing them of endangering lives
of captured U.N troops by falling
to mart five POW camps in North
Korea.
Maj. Gen William F. Dean, com-
mander of the U.S. 24th Division
until his capture in August, 1950,
was reported held In one of the
camps named
Harrison's letter to the Reds
said:
"Your continued failure to mark
adequately many of your prisoner
of war camps places in jeopardy
the safety and security of our per-
sonnel now in your hands "
charges.
Nam brushed aside Harrison's
suggestion that a recess be held _ ________________
to give the Reds “time to recon- sun in a little over eight minutes.

| Nam II said he wanted to meet first grown and widely used as a

to meet at 11 a.m. (8 p.m. Monday i
